Running On Real Estate for November 14
It’s been said that sex sells. But does celebrity sell, too? Is celebrity a sexy enough reason to want to live in a home previously occupied by someone famous or where something noteworthy occurred? I suppose the answer varies depending on the individual. If we are star-struck, the answer is probably a big Hollywood yes. If we couldn’t care less about name-dropping scenes, then negative.
I grew up in a small, Southern California coastal community where the who’s who of LA lived. Stars and their kids don’t wow me. Their dogs, now that’s another story. But my point is, celebrity is in the eye of the beholder. We all get excited if we are in close proximity to at least one category of celebrities, whether a super model, movie star, journalist, musician, athlete or politician. Take that to the next level – the possibility of living like they do – and that’s something to get starstruck over.
